There was DLC and a sequel and I've heard they're both okay but by the time I was done with the first part I was not interested in playing any more of an RPG where you only have like 2 abilities total. Every fight is the exact same. The novelty of costumes wears off pretty fast but to counter that you keep finding new ones.

That sucks. It always looked neat and I ended up grabbing P2EP instead with the PSN credit I had. I guess I made a good choice there.

i liked costume quest but the combat was boring after the first hub. apparently in costume quest 2 they made the game pertty tedious by making you have to refill your hp instead of it automatically doing so after a fight so gently caress that

if there's one thing i'll give molyneux, at least he's tried to come up with something new (and then failing miserably to execute it) rather than just taking an existing genre/game and slapping a cutesy and charming veneer on it and still failing miserably.

liquid courage posted:pretty much. had some different ideas but doesn't seem to know how to manage a project on time or on budget. blows my mind how many established indie developers seem to have this issue, but i guess it shouldn't. also, i'd just say go ahead and pick up costume quest if it's cheap enough. it's all of those things people said, but if you can get it for like 3 bux or how ever cheap it's bound to be on sale, it's worth a look. can't they hire someone competent under them and just provide overall direction? i do not work in video games so i don't really understand why this kind of thing happens so much.

Schafer is really funny because he was treated as the poster child for kickstarter or whatever but in reality he's like the exact reason publishers need to exist. He can't manage for poo poo and if you let him do his own thing it turns out as a steaming mess with no depth. There's a really funny quote exchange between him and Bobby Kotick where Schafer says Kotick is "the most evil man to ever live" or something and Kotick is like "I never even met the guy, I just cancelled one of his games because it sucked, went overbudget, and didn't meet a single deadline".

The game in quest I think was Brutal Legend, which was marketed as boring and generic third person action game when in actuality it was a boring and generic RTS or something. I stopped playing before then because it was really boring and bad.

I remember there was thing molyneux was commenting on and he was all like "excellent concept, poor execution, much like my game design ideas" and that was super loving own. I like anyone who can just come out and admit when they gently caress up.
